2. Canadian Looking to Get CALI license

   LemonDrop1234 replied to LemonDrop1234's topic in Registration

   Sorry I am a little confused by that... One can definitely obtain their license in Canada (as per their provincial college aka board) then apply for licensure by endorsement in their desired US state. My thinking was that the analysts might be less ...

3. California Board Approval Question

   LemonDrop1234 replied to canadawali's topic in California

   does anyone know approx. how many hours they are looking for? And is it really mostly based off that fill in the blank form the school fills out?

   Hi, I have read through a few thread and have learned just how strict the California Board of Nursing is I will be completing my BSN in Canada very soon. I previously lived in Southern California and would really like to return there. However, I a...

5. How many of you nurses do NOT have health insurance

   LemonDrop1234 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

   I know this is old but it makes me so sad! Literally every other country in the world (except for like, New Guinea) has health insurance. Only in the USA is it dependent on your employment. So happy I don't live in the USA at the moment. Also, it se...

6. How much did you/would you pay for BSN?

   LemonDrop1234 replied to NursingHopeful95's topic in California

   Do not pay $80,000 for your degree. Go online and figure out how much you'll end up actually paying for your degree w/ interest given however may months/years it takes you to pay it back. You will probably ending up paying double with interest! I pai...

9. Weekend Work

   LemonDrop1234 replied to LemonDrop1234's topic in Operating Room

   In this case I was specifically asking about weekend work in the OR due to the hours being somewhat different than traditional 3/12s floor nursing.

10. Weekend Work

    LemonDrop1234 replied to LemonDrop1234's topic in Operating Room

    So weekend work is generally desired by experienced nurses? I do find that kind of surprising. Also, if there is limited staff on hand, wouldn't there be a need to hire new staff that want to work those hours? *In reply to Jeckrn*

11. Weekend Work

    LemonDrop1234 posted a topic in Operating Room

    Hi y'all! Quick question, I feel like a lot of people enter the OR to work "business hours" (or something close to that) shifts. I actually went into nursing to avoid the whole 9-5pm thing (of course, not just that!! lol). Is it possible for a NEW G...

12. vip floor in a hospital

    LemonDrop1234 replied to JM RN's topic in General Nursing

    I am so confused by this concept! What do you do if the room is empty????? Can a regular pt NOT stay in the room? Where I work we have patients flowing into the hallway. It makes me sick that there could be an empty room available that they aren't "g...

13. Nurse dating former patient?

    LemonDrop1234 replied to mzsuccess's topic in Professionalism

    Ok I didn't read all the pages of responses, but yes, that sounds like stalking. Also, it is a violation of the therapeutic relationship and you're likely to be reprimanded by your licensing board.

    LemonDrop1234 replied to LemonDrop1234's topic in Canada

    That was unnecessary defensive.

15. How do you handle leechers aka LAZY STUDENTS in your class?

    LemonDrop1234 replied to live&love&heal's topic in General Students

    I agree with the previous poster that you should turn in the ones asking for you to write their papers. They will find someone willing and that's an academic infraction. Moreover, you would probably get kicked out of school if the admins learned you ...
